Do you feel overwhelmed by panic, fear, or loneliness when someone pulls away?
Do your emotions feel sudden, intense, and impossible to calm, even when you know you’re safe?
If you have an Anxious Attachment Style, this isn’t a personal flaw, it’s a trauma response rooted in early attachment experiences.
In this episode, Thais Gibson explains why Anxious Attachment triggers feel so intense, what “arrested development” really means, and how somatic processing can help soothe your nervous system so you can self-soothe without self-judgment or shame.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why struggling to self-soothe is not weakness, it’s survival conditioning
How early abandonment fears create intense adult triggers
What arrested development looks like during emotional activation
How somatic processing helps regulate panic and fear
Why your triggers are trauma responses, not personality flaws
Key Insights Covered:
Anxious attachment panic is often a subconscious fear of abandonment and survival
Emotional overwhelm can pull you into a younger, frozen emotional state
Trauma lives in the body, not just the mind
Somatic tools help you witness emotions instead of being consumed by them
Compassion and nervous system regulation are essential for healing
Meet the Host
